Teacher vs Independent Student

Some people feel they can learn very well without a teacher while others feel they cannot and need a teacher.
I very much would prefer a teacher to give a quick 20 minute lesson on the new topic. Then I would like to go on my own and practice or go farther with it, and I would only wish to return to the teacher if I had trouble with what I was doing.
I understand there are some people who need a teacher to be with them 100% of the time. Some people cannot teach themselves. I can somewhat relate to them. I am taking Health online this year because I may get accepted into the program in which I want to be, and I will not have time in my schedule my last two years of high school to take it. It can sometimes be very challenging to learn the material for the next quiz. Also, it's harder with which to keep up because I'm not going to Health Class every day like everyone else. I am completely in control of my learning in it, and I forget about it every once and a while.
In conclusion, some people can learn without a teacher. Some people cannot and wish for a teacher to be with them all the time in the classroom. I am right in the middle. I want a quick 20 minute lesson, then I wish to go on my own and go farther with it and practice.
